When you’re the number one purchase money lender in Oregon and SW Washington, you obviously know what you’re doing, and at Guild Mortgage, Senior Loan Officer Linda Read and Producing Branch Manager Andrea Zundel take pride in the services they offer.
“We like to keep things local,” Linda said. “Unlike many lenders who sell the servicing rights to another company, Guild services the majority of the loans it originates in-house. This allows us to stay connected with customers after closing and be a resource throughout their homeownership journey. We offer a personalized, step-by-step guide through the complex mortgage process, from initial consultation to closing. Clients can expect transparency, clear communication, and expert assistance in navigating documentation and market conditions.”
Andrea added, “I’m a big believer that mortgage lending is about building people, not just building files,” she said. “Linda and I are rooted in community, connection, and giving back to the people who live and work here.”
The main office is located at 180 N. Main, Suite 111, in Phoenix but they write loans for all of Oregon, including Ashland.
Guild Mortgage itself has been in business since 1960 and Andrea and Linda have been with Guild for nearly ten years. “We offer a wide range of products, including conventional loans, FHA loans, VA loans, USDA loans, Jumbo loans, and home equity loans, as well as many loan products that do not fit in a normal box.” Linda offered.
Andrea and Linda have stressed that their business is built on clarity, compassion and expertise. “We help homebuyers understand their options, build wealth through real estate, and feel fully supported from pre-approval to closing, and long after the keys are in their hands,” Andrea said. “We serve clients across Southern Oregon and neighboring states, specializing in first-time buyers, move-up buyers, investors, and families who want a guide they can trust in any market. Our entire experience is designed to be light, bright, and approachable.”
What can clients expect? According to Andrea and Linda, “From the moment someone reaches out, clients will get a clear plan; transparent numbers and strategy; weekly updates; and service and support before, during, and after they buy.”
